Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: New collection.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Background Investigation 
Medical Release Forms.
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of

Bureau of Investigation.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: This form is needed for obtaining medical 
information for non FBI personnel, for which the FBI has been requested 
to obtain medical release information. For instance, when the FBI has 
been requested to conduct background investigations on non-FBI 
employees applying for positions with other government agencies, 
sometimes medical information must be obtained. When it occurs, the 
non-FBI employee applying for the position is asked to complete the 
medical release form so the FBI has the authority to seek the medical 
information.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: It is estimated 
that not more than 50 people would need to complete this form in a 
year. It should only take each person about 15 minutes to complete the 
form.
    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: There is an estimated 12.5 total annual burden 
hours associated with this collection hours anticipated for the
